Cheese Balls and Old Chub

Local Carbs for energy
Quality dairy protein from Target for strong bones
5 degrees and snowing this morning.  Glad I'm tapering easy this week, 'cause I ain't got no motivation to go run in this crap.  Might head out for 30 mins up and down the road or might not.

Started thinking about Bighorn 100 and other options for a June 100 miler and Dylan Bowman mentioned he's opting for San Diego 100 after not getting into Hardrock.  Got me thinking, so I checked out the entrants list and it's fairly stacked with good runners (Dylan being among the top).  I registered for it this morning.  Tired of shuffling the schedule around and need to just focus on a confirmed set of races.  Aside from jumping into a shorter ultra here and there, it's pretty much locked down now, at least up through October.

Another camper registered for our Mountain Running Camp in Leadville this May, so now there are only 3 spots left open!  And McDavid is providing a couple nice gifts for each participant of the camp too, nice folks that they are.

  1. Your race schedule looks brutal. I must admit that I'm eager to see how it all plays out. Love how far your reaching and pushing.

  2. What, I'm not enough competition at Bighorn? I guess your just dodging it...

  3. Jim, yeah, it will be interesting, to say the least. I'm pretty excited about it but we'll see how I feel by July...

    Nick, you're too much competition! Actually, I like having the extra week of rest by doing SD100 instead of Bighorn.

  8. Hey, thanks, Steve. I appreciate it. Should be a fun, low-key race and looking forward to hanging out with Darren. The only hardware I'm likely to bring home are the forks to my Della Santa bike from Darren.

    Ran 5 road miles last night. 0 degrees. Suddenly, Cool, CA sounds oh, so nice.
